“White Lotus” star Aimee Lou Wood gave a public shutout to “Saturday Night Live” cast member Sarah Sherman, days after the comedian poked fun at her appearance on the late-night sketch show.
“Thank you for the beautiful flowers @sarahsquirm,” Wood, 31, captioned a photo on her Instagram story, which featured a spring-themed bouquet.

The skit prompted a response from Wood, who said she felt the spoof was “mean.”
“But whilst in honest mode – I did find the SNL thing mean and unfunny xo,” she wrote before adding, “Felt righteous might delete later X.”

“Thank you so much,” she wrote in a post to her Instagram story, where she shared a message from TV presenter Ashley James applauding her for speaking out against “Saturday Night Live.” “Just to say, I actually wasn’t crying about anything that the papers made out I was crying about. Something completely unrelated.”
